League of Legends on a Mac crashes literally every game [CRASH]

Voltron032·1/9/2015, 3:49:31 AM·27 votes·21,758 views

I play league on my 13' macbook pro. I play with my two roommates, one of them is a pc user and one of them is a mac user (has the same exact computer I do). Unfortunately every single game I play at one point or another, usually within the first ten minutes, my game freezes entirely and the only way to make this stop is to turn off my laptop and attempt to reconnect. Then this process repeats itself and I DC all game long. Since my buddies are in the same game I am, I know that this is not a connection issue, and my friends Mac plays perfectly the whole game. Knowing this I completely reset my computer to factory settings, updated it to the most current state it can be in, reinstalled League, and attempted to play again. I played one game flawlessly and that was awesome because this is the first time this has happened in weeks. However the very next game my game froze. My computer works perfectly for everything but this game so I am left to believe that it is a problem with League itself. This has been extremely frustrating and I would love if anyone from riot or the league community could suggest a way to fix this problem, or at least inform me my only solution is to wait for a Mac update. I have searched the boards and found that patch 4.17 messed with a lot of people's macs, but mine has only been messed up since patch 4.21.

Is anyone else having these problems and is there a solution?

Thank you

I am on a mac also and I am having the same problems. Its gotten even worse the last couple of hours.

TearsOfSilver1/9/2015, 3:52:35 PM3 votes

Having the exact same problem. Every time i reconnect it crashes and I get the bug splat error.

Daft Josh1/9/2015, 8:08:48 AM2 votes

This happened to me as well. Was playing just fine for the past few hours (with the exception of ten minutes ago). Was in a game when my screen completely froze. I was on a Skype with a friend and he said he didn't dc. I think this is specific to the Mac clients only. I can't even open my client right now.

Luminous01/9/2015, 9:10:32 AM2 votes

I played one game this morning right before the update with the new blood moon skins etc. and I could play just fine. Now, in the evening after the new patch with the new skins I am unable to play do to constant crashing of the LOL game on my mac. Idk if this is just mac related however, I am currently unable to play league of legends due to this bug.

Now my Client starts up every time, but I cannot login to the server (Did not receive response x3)... In the middle of typing this message, finally connected. Hopefully game will play through.

I am having the same problem as well.

That Lemur Guy1/9/2015, 9:48:30 AM2 votes

So, I am getting all the same errors, but when I restart my computer it works temporarily then boots me again. Would be nice to know if riot could at least respond and let us know that they are trying to do something...

VelliStar1/9/2015, 10:00:54 AM2 votes

this happened to me as well, and i was in a game. my team won the match, and it shows up in my match history as a leave and i actually lost LP. i don't know who to go to to resolve that. it was undeserving for me to have that leave and loss of LP for a error on the clients part.

edit: i also play on a macbook, it happened 445 am on NA. east coast.

EVERY TIME I CANT OPEN LEAGUE I ALSO CANNOT CONNECT TO SUPPORT FROM THEIR WEBSITE. THIS SEEMS SUSPICIOUS

+1

last game I was playing with 4 friends and 2 of us had Macs (different IPs, different locations) and the two of us with Macs got DC'd and we couldn't even log in, or restart client.

fEARtHEgOOCH1/9/2015, 8:02:59 AM2 votes

I've been playing on a Mac since the days of the unsupported client, and this is the very first time I have had this issue. Played three games just fine this afternoon, then last game it freezes out of nowhere and I couldn't Command Tab out. Didn't fully shutdown, and message came up saying client crashed. Rejoined game, crashed like 20 seconds later. Not sure if this is a result of the latest update, but again this is my first time experiencing this particular issue.

FriedChickenKing1/9/2015, 8:04:39 AM2 votes

This happened to me too. So the screen was freezed and i can tell it's not because of my internet. I experienced some DCs because of internet and it just instantly close the game and shows a reconnect on the cilent. But this time, after it's crashed i can still make it into the game and keep playing. But if i want to do something like speak in chat, or use a skill, the screen is just gonna freeze again and then dc. This wasn't happening in the last patch so. And I really wish i don't get a report for this. Sorry to my teammates.item 3070 i tried my best to reconnect.

Deaddon1/9/2015, 3:23:31 PM2 votes

i just finished playing a game that required me to reconnect 3 times in less then 15 min.... yesterday i had the same issue with multiple games

Protip: Include your OSX version number when submitting a bug report. I have a strong suspicion this is somehow related to Yosemite.

fEARtHEgOOCH1/9/2015, 8:25:19 AM1 votes

Was able to rejoin game massively under leveled/farmed. I had to constantly try and open LoL while clicking to terminate pre existing client. Once it started loading client, I clicked Launch... This of course failed, so I did the process allover again. It worked the second time, but I really hope this issue doesn't come up in my next game.

Voltron0321/9/2015, 8:34:27 PM1 votes

Thanks for the feedback everyone. It's good to know I'm not the only one having this problem. I played last night on my buddies Mac mentioned in the original post and his computer crashed as well while the pc was doing fine. I'm not sure how to check what version of software I have, I just know that it's definitely Yosemite and there's nothing for me to update when I check for updates via the App Store. Im not super tech savvy so I'm not sure how to look into this any further to figure out the exact version this is. The only thing that changed though when I played on my friends computer was changing the settings to turn quick cast on with range indicators. Seems far fetched to think this could be the cause of the crash but besides a different account being logged in, that was the only difference between the game working flawlessly and crashing every match. He is playing on his own account now with his own settings applied on his Mac and it hasn't crashed yet. Riot your Mac community is huge and would love to know if progress is being made to correct this issue!

So, I have decide gg riot you win. you refuse to acknowledge or do anything about problems when they arise. Your refusal to support your players has ended the fun of this game. You would think a company that makes the money you do would do something so support your game. I am done fighting through server lag because your servers are garbage in NA. I am don't fighting through client error because you refuse to fix them. GG riot you win. I am done.

BroDoyleRulz1/23/2015, 7:26:56 PM1 votes

I'm so glad I found this thread! My Mac which runs Yosemite 10.10 is doing the exact same thing. Some games run perfectly, but 98% of my games crash about 20 minutes into the match. I've done everything suggested to fix this problem on the Support page. I've been suffering with this for months now, and It is the most aggravating thing ever. I hope there is a resolution to this issue. If anyone has an answer please let me know! I'm desperate to get back on the rift!

Have they resolve this problem? or something we can do?, I´m new to LoL, I have been playing coop against bots, and it works kinda normal, but today I just started to play PvP and happened this problem, I found here that everyone or almost everyone using mac, have this issue.

So after 3 months this post was written, is there something Riot has done to solve the problem?

Thank you

I got my mac when it was an El Captian > Yosemite (had NO ISSUES whatsoever) > Sierra (disconnects every single game) > HighSierra (No change whatsoever). Idk, I think Riot is like saying "PC MASTER RACE"

Same problem. Get into a game, client freezes completely, I cannot even command-tab out. Using Macbook Pro 15", Yosemite. I have to force quit and restart, still crashes.

ChisatoShirasagi2/5/2018, 5:17:40 PM1 votes

My problem isn't as severe as yours, but it's still annoying. Basically once every few games, League just randomly crashes on my iMac and I'm left with a bugsplat. This is frustrating because it happens pretty early in the game where good cs and lane dominance means everything for a mid laner. I'm just glad it hasn't crashed in the middle of a fight yet...
